Pursuant to this authority, EPA ordered eBay to immediately stop the sale of unregistered, misbranded, or restricted-use pesticides under its ownership, control, or custody, wherever such pesticide is located on. § 136k(a), authorizes the EPA to issue a Stop Sale, Use, or Removal Order to any person with a pesticide in their ownership, custody, or control whenever there is reason to believe that such pesticide is in violation of any provision of FIFRA, or that such pesticide has been, or is intended to be, distributed or sold in violation of any provision of the Act. Specifically, EPA documented FIFRA regulated pesticides that were not registered with the Agency, pesticides with unapproved claims for use against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, and/or coronavirus, and pesticides that were classified for restricted-use, which are prohibited from being sold to the general public. Based on the information collected, the EPA has reason to believe that eBay has been distributing or selling, and intended to continue distributing or selling, over 40 pesticides that were unregistered, misbranded, or that were classified for restricted-use in violation of Sections 12(a)(1)(A), 12(a)(1)(E) and 12(a)(2)(F) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C.

Pesticides classified for restricted-use are not available for purchase or use by the general public due to their potential to cause unreasonable adverse effects to the environment and injury to applicators or bystanders without added restrictions. Pesticides that make claims not approved by the EPA for use against human pathogens are misbranded. Pesticides not registered with the EPA have not undergone the Agency’s evaluation for the potential for health and ecological effects of a pesticide. Pesticides claiming to control viruses, or any other human pathogens, are subject to heightened scrutiny and data requirements by the EPA in order to ensure that the product is safe and effective. These provisions are meant to minimize risks to consumers and the environment associated with the handling and application of pesticides. §§ 136-136y, prohibits the distribution or sale of pesticides that are not registered with the EPA, pesticides that make false or misleading claims (i.e., misbranded), or pesticides that are classified for restricted use when distributed or sold to persons not authorized to receive or purchase them.
